Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N509CQ is a Gulfstream G‑IVSP built in 1993, serial number 1233. The aircraft is owned by BWP AVIATION LLC, a corporate registrant based in Nashville, TN, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. Notable entry information for this airframe centers on its corporate ownership and standard civilian registry status; as a 1993-built G‑IVSP its valuation is reported at $4,700,000, reflecting age, configuration and market position. Condition highlights are consistent with an executive VIP layout and a common avionics fit for the model, factors that influence its operational utility and resale profile.

The cabin of N509CQ is configured in an Executive VIP layout typical of the G‑IV/G‑IVSP family, supporting a practical operational seating range of 13–16 passengers for executive missions while retaining certification for 22 seats. Internal fit features include a forward galley, mid/forward seating clusters, an aft lavatory and ample baggage space, supporting corporate and charter missions that emphasize comfort on long transcontinental or international legs. Avionics are a Collins/Honeywell integrated suite as is typical of G‑IV/G‑IVSP installations, enabling modern flight management and systems integration for crew efficiency and long‑range operations. Based in Nashville, TN by ownership, the aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with high‑speed, high‑altitude executive transport up to the model ceiling of 45,000 ft and range of 4,166 nm, with maintenance and amenity considerations aligned to executive cabin preservation and turbofan engine support.

The Gulfstream G‑IVSP occupies a long‑range large‑cabin niche, offering higher cruise speeds and substantial range relative to smaller business jets; this airframe’s Rolls‑Royce TAY 611‑8 engines and performance figures place it competitively against contemporaries in the large corporate jet segment. Market demand for airframes of this vintage is influenced by cabin configuration, avionics retrofit status and maintenance history; the reported value of $4,700,000 reflects depreciation, operational capability and the appeal of an executive VIP interior. Prospective buyers and charter operators typically weigh long‑term maintenance, engine support and avionics upgrade costs against the G‑IVSP’s proven service record and spacious cabin for extended executive missions.
